What people are saying about FEAT...

One of the best outdoorsy presentations I've been to - and I've done a few! Centennial is the perfect location to attract the adventure-seeking crowd, and midweek is great to avoid conflicting with peoples' inevitable weekend plans (and gives a nice highlight to look forward to during the mundane work week!). A truly exceptional selection of speakers, a fantastic TED-style format, and cool swag giveaways! Definitely an organization I'll support year on year.
